This is a Patron Request. I've wanted to do some Johnny Cash for a while now, but haven't gotten around to it. I even bought two separate shirts of the man in black. I forgot about the first one, bought the second one, then forgot about them both when I was recording. It wasn't until my last take (the one you see here) where I looked and found them both. I was wearing a black button-down like he often wore, but figured I might as well use one of the shirts I bought specifically for when I cover his songs.

In Johnny's later live shows, he jumps straight into the chorus and changes the vocal rhythm a bit

Bar 16,40,52,60 - leading into chorus, bass stays on quarters. Guitars & Piano have the walking 8ths
It's deceiving, but sounds good if you choose to play along with them

Bar 16, last beat is 5. 3 sounds wrong and clashes, even though there's the walking line in the other instruments.

(1979)
0:24 - Kramer bass, using frets instead of open strings
1:13 - fingers, no pick
1:33 - quarter notes

(1968, mimed, slightly out of sync)
0:04 - fingers, fretted
0:42 - fret hand

glimpses of fender jazz bass with fingers and fretted notes
0:47 - fret hand
1:15 - good shot of bassist
1:39 - 5 on A to open A (good for clean playing)

double bass plucking (as I thought)
0:01 - 1st finger in half position on G and D, so the song is a half note higher here than the studio version
Thanks for watching! Enjoy :)
